I fully agree, that this is not good for a stable update. But on the other side, developers are forced to discontinue the support for a stable Ubuntu LTS like 18.04, because there are no updates which are necessary to run the application without the newest bugfixes. This will then also force end-users to switch the OS or drop the use of the now not supported end user software, thus the complete sense of a LTS is therefore broken.
Also switching to a newer ubuntu version is mostly ok for many end- users, but not for those who use a distribution building on top of Ubuntu 18.04 eg. Linux Mint(, the next release will come end of June). As a developer I wished there would be a rolling release cycle APT repository for LTS Ubuntu distributions, containing at least all stable packages with active support. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876821 Title: [needs-packaging] gtk+3.24: gtk+3.22 is discontinued Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Since there are no more updates released for gtk+3.22 it is important, that at least gtk+3.24 is added to ubuntu-18.04 APT.
